This Summoner Is Too Powerful

Chapter 712: Chapter 501: [Old Tree Bark] (Part 2)

The light portal of the quest was right behind them, and of course, they could choose to exit immediately.

But now that the magic creatures had been attracted, if these creatures occupied the area, it would be very difficult for them to re-enter and regain control of the surroundings.

Yet if they didn’t retreat, they might get torn apart by these magic creatures, which was no exaggeration.

However, just at that moment, when everyone was unaware.

A faint light appeared above the swarm of tree monsters, fell straight down, and then...

Then Xu Zishan saw an extremely intense light.

Vaguely, she felt that this scene seemed somewhat familiar.

"Oh wow, that’s blinding!"

When she shouted this line again, everything came back to her.

Just 3 days ago, she had gone through the same thing.

Pain, her eyes were stinging, so much so that she wanted to cry.

But Xu Zihui’s heart felt relieved.

Sure enough, the sound of an explosion followed.

Boom!

A powerful gust of wind pressed against her face.

Xu Zihui and the tree creatures were no strangers to this situation, but the others present were not the same.

"Wh-what just happened?!"

"Explosion! I heard a loud explosion sound!"

"My eyes hurt so much! I can’t see anything!"

"Damn, could it be the boss is coming?!"

Some even tried to feel their way back to the light portal, but after a few steps, they stumbled and fell.

Fortunately, a summoned beast capable of dispelling blindness quickly healed them, and one by one relieved everyone of their blindness.

When everyone recovered their vision, they were dumbfounded by the sight.

The massive swarm of tree monsters had already disappeared without a trace.

Only a scattered few dozen were rushing towards them, and judging by their posture, they seemed more like they were fleeing.

Rushing to the defensive line, the frontline summoned beasts pounced on them, smashing them into pieces.

"Where did those magic creatures go?"

"I scouted, and it seems there’s a big crater over there..."

"An explosion among the magic creatures, it’s clearly no coincidence."

"Hey, did any of you practice some killer move recently?"

"Makes sense, but this killer move is... way too powerful, isn’t it???"

"But as amazing as it is, it almost blinded me, what do you say to that?"

"Exactly, just don’t let me find out who did it."

"Not even a heads up beforehand, that’s too much."

Listening to everyone’s discussion, the tree creatures and the Xu siblings exchanged glances and then looked at Li Pu.

In this situation, Li Pu obviously did not want to confess to this trouble.

The seniors were so agitated now, what if they asked him to pay compensation?

So he chose to ignore their gaze.

But the edge of a glasses frame sticking out of his shirt pocket, along with the sunglasses worn by Bo Bo and the Ugly Little Wolf, gave the truth away.

"Ahem, sorry everyone."

Seeing Li Pu like this, Xu Zihui reluctantly stepped forward to take the blame: "The person you’re talking about... is me."

There’s no choice, someone needed to own up at this time.

If they didn’t let everyone know that this exaggerated explosion was caused by their side, the quest would be forfeit, and people would immediately leave.

Her words naturally drew some cursing from the group, but as classmates, no one really pressed the issue.

The first wave of tree monsters came with great momentum but was swiftly taken care of.

The number of subsequent tree monsters was significantly more reasonable, just around 500 per wave.

Their team could easily handle 500 tree monsters.

First, a wave of long-range attacks wiped the floor clean, leaving only about 200 when it came to close combat.

The summoned beasts present generally had the strength for 1vN against the tree monsters, with 200 not even enough to fill the gaps, the summoners didn’t even need to intervene.

But the good times didn’t last long, and a new situation soon arose.

A wave of over a thousand tree monsters was rushing towards them.

"Junior, lend me your sunglasses."

The tree creature moved closer to Li Pu, completely aware.

"Uh..."

This number was a bit awkward for Li Pu.

Because he felt this wave of tree monsters was far less than the first tidal wave, using No.2 to resolve it seemed like a bit of a waste.

"Junior, stay strong."

"We can handle this!"

Fortunately, at that moment, Xu Zihui also moved over.

Her words, while literally encouraging, sounded more like pleading.

No choice, she feared a few more times and everyone might go permanently blind.

At that point, they’d have to leave the quest like a train bound for the school clinic to change their eyes.

"Everyone, look behind!"

Suddenly, someone in the team pointed to the cliff behind them.

Everyone turned their heads at the words.

[Tree monsters!]

They saw the cliff edge was already filled with tree monsters, densely packed and forming an impenetrable wall.

"Oh no, they can even launch sneak attacks?!"

"Surrounded, we’re in danger!"

"Caught in a pincer attack, this is tricky!"

"Leader, quickly give orders, how should we allocate our forces!"

This unexpected situation left everyone flustered.

The frontline summoned beasts were engaged in fierce combat, and now another batch of enemy reinforcements appeared from the rear, which wasn’t good.

As a student, Xu Zihui faced such a pincer-dangerous situation for the first time.

For a moment, she panicked a bit, not issuing orders immediately.

It was during this brief hesitation that she seemed to miss the optimal timing, as a leading tree monster took action first.

This tree monster was much larger than the others, clearly a higher level existence.

[Tree magic!]

It let out a fierce roar and leaped off the cliff.

Whoosh~

The result presented to everyone was a strange scene.

The large tree monster seemed to ride an invisible air slide, drawing a semicircle in the air, and then falling right back onto the cliff.

[Tree magic?]

This left it bewildered.

The people below the cliff were also bewildered.

We were about to draw our swords, and you just jumped back up?

[Tree trees!]

A subordinate next to the big tree monster, not understanding, anxiously leapt as well.

This time, the scene was unlike before.

Splat!

It plummeted swiftly from the cliff and fell to the ground, breaking in two, dead.

[Tree trees!] xN

The tree monsters mostly didn’t have much brains, not learning from past mistakes.

As the first tree monster hit the ground, the rest leapt down like dumplings.

The result was that nine out of ten were snapped to death immediately, and the remaining survivors were taken down by a few summoner skills collectively, posing no threat.

"..." xN

"These tree monsters don’t seem to be much of a threat."

"At this height, they can die from falling?"

"So their sneak attack strategy was meaningless."

"A bunch of losers, gave me a fright."

Everyone was speechless.

In reality, only Li Pu knew what had happened.

At this height, combined with his dual-gravitational force [Gravitational Field], the small frames of the tree monsters couldn’t withstand the fall.

Though a few slipped through, the remainder posed no issue.

[Magic tree?!]

The big tree monster on the cliff miraculously survived, showing incredulous emotions on its dry, old bark face.

But soon, it turned around and waved its arm!

[Magic tree!] xN

A batch of new tree monsters responded to its call and walked to the edge of the cliff.

"These are... new breed tree monsters?"

"They don’t seem easy to deal with."

"I don’t know much else, but at least they probably won’t die from falling."

Freshly relieved, everyone’s expressions turned serious again.

This new batch of tree monsters was clad in gray-black cloaks all over.

Combined with their dark demeanor, they resembled vampire counts.

When the cloaks spread out, one could see they were actually wings.

This batch of tree monsters was of the flying kind.
